Endometriosis and adenomyosis not only cause symptoms such as dysmenorrhea, chronic pelvic pain, and infertility, but have also recently been implicated in a range of obstetric complications. The association between endometriosis and adenom…
Laparoscopic port site endometriosis is less common in abdominal wall endometriosis, and malignant transformation of abdominal wall endometriosis is rare. We reported a case of mixed endometrioid and clear cell carcinoma arising from port s…
AIM: The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of T2 star (T2*) mapping in diagnosing ovarian cysts/ tumors. METHODS: diameter circle, was set as much as possible inside ovarian tumors/cysts to measure T2*values, and mean T2* va…
Abstract Amenorrhea and osteoporosis are strongly associated in female athletes. Amenorrheic women show lower serum levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) than eumenorrheic women. BDNF is known to regulate bone tissue developmen…
Uterine adenomyosis is a benign disorder that often co-occurs with endometriosis and/or leiomyoma, and impairs quality of life. The genomic features of adenomyosis are unknown. Here we apply next-generation sequencing to adenomyosis (70 ind…
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: This study aims to assess the cost-effectiveness of early physician consultation and guideline-based intervention to prevent endometriosis and/or disease progression using oral contraceptive (OC) and progestin comp…
Endometriosis is characterized by the implantation and growth of endometriotic tissues outside the uterus. It is widely accepted the theory that endometriosis is caused by the implantation of endometrial tissue from retrograde menstruation;…
Traits related to primary and secondary sexual characteristics greatly impact females during puberty and day-to-day adult life. Therefore, we performed a GWAS analysis of 11,348 Japanese female volunteers and 22 gynecology-related phenotypi…
AIM: Adenomyosis is a common gynecological disorder that causes dysmenorrhea, hypermenorrhea and metrorrhagia. Previously, we reported that 24 weeks of dienogest treatment is highly effective for pain in symptomatic adenomyosis. Up to prese…
AIM: To determine the efficacious treatment for infertile couples, we assessed the impact of infertility factors including endometriosis on assisted reproductive technology (ART) and non-ART treatment, and the effect of age in infertility t…
Endometrioma is known to be an occurrence site of ovarian cancer, but there is no evidence on how to reduce the risk of canceration. Here, we report three cases of ovarian cancer arising from endometrioma during hormone therapies of GnRH an…
Objective: To evaluate the potential impact of adenomyosis on the pregnancy outcomes by retrospectively investigating adenomyosis-complicated pregnancy cases. Methods: We performed a retrospective case–control study. Forty-nine singleton pr…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a gynaecological disease exhibiting severe pelvic pain, but the mechanism of pain production remains unknown. Bradykinin (BK) is known as an inflammatory mediator, and shows elevated levels in inflammatory disea…
The association between cervical conization and subsequent development of endometriosis is uncertain. The objective of this study was to estimate the incidence rate of ovarian endometrioma after cervical conization and to determine factors …
